AFK Inactivity Checks

How to Configure AFK Inactivity Checks

Find AFK Inactivity Checks on the ER:LC Integration → API page, below Event Logs.

Configuration Options

Setting	Description
Enable AFK Inactivity Checks	Turns the feature on or off
Minutes Before Alert	How long a staff member can be inactive before the first alert. 5 to 240 minutes.
Escalation Grace Period	How long to wait after the first alert before escalating. 3 to 240 minutes.
Alert Channel	Where the first alert posts, usually a staff-only channel
Escalation Channel	Where escalation alerts post
Mention Roles on Alert	Up to 5 roles to ping on the first alert
Mention Roles on Escalation	Up to 5 roles to ping on escalation, usually senior staff
Send ER:LC PM Confirmation	Sends the flagged staff member an in-game PM with a code. They run `:log {code}` to confirm they’re active.
PM Message Template	The PM text, up to 500 characters. Include `{{token}}` where the code should go.

Melonly won’t save the template without {{token}}. If the template is empty, no PM is sent.

Example Workflow

A staff member goes inactive during a session

After Minutes Before Alert, Melonly posts an alert in the alert channel

If Send ER:LC PM Confirmation is on, the staff member gets a PM asking them to confirm

If they stay inactive for the Escalation Grace Period, Melonly posts an escalation and pings the escalation roles
